Click on Image to Enlarge My South Facing Greenhouse Window |
This is a shout out to my marvelous husband, who built me a lovely functional greenhouse window in the unused space above my kitchen sink.
Employing an extra white wire closet shelf, a scrap piece of oak found in our garage and some serious elbow grease; within an hour Doug had transformed useless space into a beautiful greenhouse-like seedling starter location in a south-facing window.
The shelves are easily and completely removable, should I choose to take them down over the winter; however, I think they'd be a great location for houseplants during the colder months. In addition to the portability, the location of the shelves - right over the kitchen sink - makes it impossible for me to forget to water and tend the seedlings.
With respect to form and function, I'm simply delighted with the result of my greenhouse window; and, my seedlings are growing, as my husband says, "Like they are on steroids."
Many thanks, Doug, for a project very well done!
